First, I hope you are doing OK with your treatments. Second I think that Mayo is a top quality treatment center and that you hopefully are comfortable with the type of treatments you are receiving there. I am astounded with the number of young people like yourself that are facing this type of cancer! I want to pass along hope for you in this battle, and there are a number of people that will help if you have questions. Let us know how you are doing.
Mark, 21 Year survivor, SCC right tonsil, 3 nodes positive, one with extra-capsular spread. I never asked what stage (would have scared me anyway) Right side tonsillectomy, radical neck dissection right side, maximum radiation to both sides, no chemo, no PEG, age 40 when diagnosed.
